The Jewish Historical Society has been interviewing community members for the past thirty-nine years in order to preserve the history of the Jewish community of British Columbia. To date, we have collected approximately 700 oral history interviews. This rich resource is a integral component of the Jewish Museum and Archives of British Columbia, and as such we have chosen to showcase a number of oral history excerpts from our collection. This is only a sampling of our oral history collection; please feel free to visit the Archives to discover the wealth of material in our oral history collection.
